Description:

Remington only manufactured about 2,000 of these Model 1890 Single Action Army revolvers from 1891 to 1894. The Model 1890 was the successor to the Model 1875 and was intended to be the competitor of the Colt Single Action Army. This model of revolver is the most sought after of all of the Remington produced handguns. The top of the barrel is marked "REMINGTON ARMS CO. ILION, N.Y." and “44 C.F.W" is marked on the left side of the frame just below the cylinder. The serial number is marked on the lower left side of the frame under the grip panel and on the loading gate. The revolver has a blade front and frame notch rear sights, lanyard stud and ring mounted on the butt and is fitted with checkered hard rubber grips with the "RA" monogram at the tops.

Rating Definition:

Excellent with 97% plus original and untouched nickel finish showing minor handling marks, a bit of holster wear at the muzzle and front of the cylinder. The grips are very fine with minor handling marks on the lower edges and crisp checkering. The roll markings remain crisp and clear. Mechanically excellent.
